The Heritage School

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

[edit] Introduction

The Heritage School is co-educational and is divided into two departments, the Primary Department (2-12+ years), and the Secondary Department (13-18+). Pupils may join the school at a variety of ages as places become available, but the main entry points are 2 years old (Nursery) and 13 years old (Form 1) we have two new classes in each age group for the Primary & Four Classes in each age group for the Secondary, starting every January.

The Heritage School provides continuity and a sense of family, as it is possible for a child to start their schooling in a Nursery class and progress through all the grades to Upper Sixth. Pupils in Grade 7 are guaranteed a place in Form 1 thus enabling parents, pupils and staff to plan ahead with confidence.

Examinations offered to our students include University of Cambridge IGCSE and A-Level AS Level and Cambridge International Diplomas. The Heritage strives for excellence in all examinations our record is testament to this.
